Potatoes, cheese, and bacon? What's not to love about Irish nachos!

To give you some background on these genius party treats, Irish nachos are fried or baked potato slices topped with all the delicious things you’d expect to find on nachos and some tasty extras in this case, bacon.

This genius dish, perfect for St. Patrick’s Day, is said to have been invented by J. Gilligan’s Irish Bar and Grill in Arlington, Texas.

You know the Texans! It’s go big or go home.

Why not mix up the topping on these bad boys for the vegetarians in your lives and try them with pepper or olives. You could even whip up a nice salsa to go on the side.
